The tide is turning against AIPAC,
John.
[ [link removed] ]A headline from The New York Times reads 'Democrats Pull Away From
AIPAC, Reflecting a Broader Shift'. The subheading reads 'A quiet retreat
by Democrats from the pre-eminent pro-Israel lobbying group is the latest
evidence of a realignment underway in Congress on Israel.'
As our Communications Director, Usamah Andrabi, told the press this week:
“Our movement's work to demand the Democratic Party reject AIPAC as a
toxic pariah is not only working but ensuring that the pro-genocide Israel
lobby's influence in Washington is waning. AIPAC and its affiliated super
PACs—from the United Democracy Project to the Democratic Majority for
Israel—are transforming from a lobby that establishment Democrats could
rely on to buy a seat in Washington into a kiss of death for any candidate
who has their support."
The New York Times even said, “AIPAC is becoming an increasingly toxic
brand for some Democrats on Capitol Hill.” Here are just some of the
signs:
* Congressional Democrats who used to gladly count AIPAC as one of their
top campaign donors are now outright refusing their donations due to
public pressure.
* Fewer and fewer Democratic members are taking the annual
AIPAC-sponsored propaganda trip to Israel.
* A majority of the Senate Democratic Caucus has voted for bills to
block additional U.S. weapons sales to Israel, which AIPAC vehemently
opposes.
This is a turning point for the Democratic Party,
John, and with your support, Justice Democrats
helped usher it in. But the fight to fully reject AIPAC from the Party is
far from over, especially as we approach the 2026 primary elections.
We’ve already endorsed three anti-AIPAC, working-class, progressive
candidates to take on out-of-touch, corporate incumbents in next year’s
Democratic primaries, and we know AIPAC is likely to drop tens of millions
of dollars to try defeating them and unseating more members of the Squad
like they did last year.
